BTW - if you're building Inuksuit in National or Provincial parks, please stop. Every few years, park staff ask news media to publish a plea to visitors to stop creating their own stone sculptures because of environmental impact.

AutoMPC: A Code Generator for MPC-based Automated Driving
Model Predictive Control (MPC) is a powerful technique to control nonlinear, multi-input multi-output systems subject to input and state constraints. It is now a standard tool for trajectory tracking control of automated vehicles. As such it has been used in many research and development projects. However, MPC faces several challenges to be integrated into industrial production vehicles. The most important ones are its high computational demands and the complexity of implementation. The softwar…

Surface sums in two-dimensional large-$N$ lattice Yang--Mills: Cancellations and explicit computation for general loops
In the context of two-dimensional large-$N$ lattice Yang--Mills theory, we perform a refined study of the surface sums defined in the companion work [BCSK24]. In this setting, the surface sums are a priori expected to exhibit significant simplifications, because two-dimensional Yang--Mills theory is a special model admitting many known exact formulas. Thus, a natural problem is to understand these simplifications directly from the perspective of the surface sums. Towards this goal, we develop a…

A Study of the Scale Invariant Signal to Distortion Ratio in Speech Separation with Noisy References

A Study of the Scale Invariant Signal to Distortion Ratio in Speech Separation with Noisy References
This paper examines the implications of using the Scale-Invariant Signal-to-Distortion Ratio (SI-SDR) as both evaluation and training objective in supervised speech separation, when the training references contain noise, as is the case with the de facto benchmark WSJ0-2Mix. A derivation of the SI-SDR with noisy references reveals that noise limits the achievable SI-SDR, or leads to undesired noise in the separated outputs. To address this, a method is proposed to enhance references and augment …

GPU Accelerated Transducer-Field Calculation using the Traditional Born Series Formulation for Realistic Media
This study numerically solves inhomogeneous Helmholtz equations modeling acoustic wave propagation in homogeneous and lossless, absorbing and dispersive, inhomogeneous and nonlinear media. The traditional Born series (TBS) method has been employed to solve such equations. The full wave solution in this methodology is expressed as an infinite sum of the solution of the unperturbed equation weighted by increasing power of the potential. Simulated pressure field patterns for a linear array of acou…

Danielle Smith, Alberta Premier, goes full “why aren’t you grateful”.
Why can’t any of these horrible people ever show humility.
I guess they wouldn’t be horrible then….
“Alberta Premier Danielle Smith demanded Friday the fire-stricken town of Jasper apologize and retract a report criticizing her government for its role in last summer's devastating blaze.”
Maybe Jasper should become part of BC.
